Miscellaneous NT follies






These are amazing little gems from the New Testament that don't really fit into my other categories but it'd be a shame not to list them at all


No man can retain the spirit after death
- Eccles 8:8

Peter restores spirit of tabitha after her death
- Acts 9:37, 40


"So where do ya want I should deliver dis package?"

Simon and andrew's home was in Capernaum
- Mark 1:21, 29

Simon and andrew's home was in the same place as philip's - Bethsaida
- John 1:44


Get it right, will ya?

The author of Matthew claims jeremiah prophesied the 30 pieces of silver, etc.
- Matt 27:9-10

However, zechariah made that prophecy
- Zechariah 11:12-13


Secret disciple?

Joseph of Arimathea is a "secret disciple of jesus" who previously feared recriminations from the Jewish Priests.
- John 19:38

He was simply a previously unknown "follower of jesus"
- Matt 27:57

He was an honored member of the Jewish high court who was "eagerly expecting the arrival of god's kingdom"
- Mark 15:42,43, Luke 23:50

Now, if everybody who was "eagerly expecting the arrival of god's kingdom" was a disciple, then there must be have been millions of 'em running around the place...


Jesus and god are one
- John 10:30

Jesus and god are separate
- Matt 19:16,17, Luke 18:19, implied by hundreds of others.
As the reader may or may not know, the concept of the trinity is not actually referenced anywhere in the bible.

I thought they were one and the same...

Jesus is without sin
- Hebrews 4:15

Jesus says only his father is without sin
- Matt 19:17
